objective: infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 induces viral latency in neuron trigeminal ganglions. the late associated transcript (lat) is uniquely expressed in infected neural cells, however no coding protein associated with these transcripts has been identified in infected cells. it has been shown that six micrornas transcribed from lat have the capabilities to affect the cell signal...

conclusions more than behalf of the wound isolates were esbl positive, and the presence of blaveb-1 was determined in less than half of these isolates. fortunately, resistance to imipenem and meropenem was low. results the majority of the wound isolates were resistant to augmentin (90%, n = 80) and cefpodoxime (87.6%, n = 78). however, the majority was susceptible to imipenem and meropenem. fif...

background: human cripto-1, a member of the egf-cfc family, is involved in embryonic development, embryonic stem cell maintenance, and tumor progression. it also participates in multiple cell signaling pathways including wnt, notch, and tgf-β. remarkably, it is expressed in cancer stem cell (csc) compartments, boosting tumor cell migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. although cripto-1 is overe...

an account is presented on investigation of the effects of synthesis parameters, i.e., reaction sources, silica to alumina ratio, acid molar ratio and crystallization conditions on the crystallinity, morphology and particle size of sapo-34. the synthesis conditions were designed to produce small particles with narrow size range. the prepared samples were characterized by xrd and sem techniques ...

introduction: 64cu-pyruvaldehyde-bis(n4-methylthiosemicarbazone) (64cu-ptsm)‍ is one of the most important copper radiopharmaceuticals used in clinical experiments. methods: in this work, copper-64 (t1/2=12.33 h) production has been presented followed by the synthesis of the complexing agent, ptsm, and its structure was confirmed by common spectroscopic methods followed by radiolabeling with 64...

myeloperoxidase (mpo) and paraoxonase-1 (pon1) are inflammatory and anti-inflammatory enzymes, respectively that have been involved in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (cad). in this study we sought to evaluate the relations of mpo and pon1 with high density lipoprotein (hdl) mean size in patients with acute coronary syndrome (acs). collectively, 50 control subjects and 50 patients w...

results escherichia coli phytase was expressed in p. pastoris under different cultivation conditions (post-induction temperature, methanol concentration, and post-induction ph). the optimized conditions by rsm using face centered central composite design were 1% (v/v) methanol, ph = 5.8, and 24.5°c. under the optimized conditions, appa was successfully expressed in p. pastoris and the maximum p...
